Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/ANSI, and with all local codes and
authorities having jurisdiction. Wiring should be UL Listed and/or Recognized wire suitable for the application.
eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM is not intended to be connected to outside plant leads and should be installed indoors within the
protected premises. The eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM and eBridge1PCTX are intended for indoor use only.
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the
rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment
in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised. Do not obstruct any air vents on the unit. It is recommended to leave half
space above and below the unit.
Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due
to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate rating should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given
to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM installation:
a. Attach mounting brackets to eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM unit for rack installation (Fig. 4, pg. 7).
Affix rubber pads to eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM for shelf installation (Fig. 5, pg. 7).
Unit should be located in proximity to ethernet switch/network, NVR or video server.
b. Connect structured cable from ethernet midspan or endspan device to RJ45 jack marked [10/100BaseT]
(Fig. 2, pg. 4).
c. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 1, pg. 4).
2.
eBridge1PCTX installation:
a. Secure unit to desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the case’s mounting hole.
Unit should be mounted in proximity of camera/device.
b. Connect structured cable from IP camera/device to RJ45 jack marked [10/100BaseT] (Fig. 2, pg. 4).
c. Connect Coax cable to BNC connector marked [Coax] (Fig. 2, pg. 4).
3.
eBridge1ST installation:
a. Secure unit to the desired mounting surface with a proper fastening device utilizing the case’s mounting hole
(Fig. 3, pg. 5). Unit should be mounted in proximity of camera/device.
b. Connect structured cable from IP camera/device to RJ45 jack marked [PoE Out] (Fig. 2a, pg. 4).
c. Connect Coax cable from eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM to BNC tether cable marked [Coax] (Fig. 2a, pg. 4).
Note: eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM is designed to accommodate Megapixel, HD720, HD1080 and VGA (SD) cameras. It is
important to note that some high resolution and high frame rate cameras may demand faster headend processing ability,
such as a PC graphics card to present a quality image. If the headend processing equipment is insufficient in speed, the
image may show pixelation and latency. It is advisable to pretest system if unsure. Alternatively, frame rate and resolution
may be reduced to accommodate system equipment.
